Gizmon just released the all black military version of their Gizmon iCA iPhone 4/4S camera case so I had to order one and give it a try. I’ve been wanting a case with a top-mounted shutter button and viewfinder. I paired the Gizmon iCA case with the Street Strap with the circular rings. The fit [...]
There’s a handsome yet affordable new strap on the market for your Leica Rangefinder, Micro 4/3, Fuji, or Sony NEX, The Street Strap.

Just how far would I go for an Eric Kim street photography workshop? How about half-way around the globe to Tokyo, Japan? Not only did I span the entire Pacific Ocean, I traveled through time, crossing the International Date Line into tomorrow. But, hey—it’s an Eric Kim workshop, right?

Established in 1930 in Wetzlar, Germany, the birthplace of Leica, the Akademie has attracted avid scholars of the art of photography to its seminars worldwide. [...]
One of the paradoxes of going to photography trade shows is that you end up so busy with the show that you don’t get to do any photography. That was the case when I attended the PDN Outdoor Photo Expo in Salt Lake City back in August. Utah is a gorgeous state, brimming with the [...]
A principal advantage of living near a sprawling cosmopolitan metropolis like Los Angeles is the wide range of cultural activities the area offers at any given time.
